6th International Conference on Emerging Zoonoses - WELCOME: "We take great pleasure in inviting you to join us for the 6th International Conference on Emerging Zoonoses, which will take place in Cancun, Mexico,
February 24 – 27, 2011.
Events in the last year have shown us that we are still very vulnerable to fatal zoonotic diseases such as pandemic swine-origin influenza virus H1N1. Since we met in Limassol, Cyprus in November 2007 avian and swine influenza has captured the world’s attention, and we have witnessed the emergence and/or re-emergence of many zoonotic diseases such as the Reston ebolavirus in pigs. Furthermore, new zoonotic pathogens with potential of causing severe human disease have been discovered such as a new arenavirus, Lujo virus, and a new lineage of HIV in Africa."
